According to UPS.com, the bearings should be on your Porch awaiting installation on your Porsche (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I got to play some with the goodies this morning .Actual
fondling made me appreciate the expense involved in making them. The only bits that worry me are the thrust washers/bearings and their interface with the thrust faces on the A arms. I already know that the thrust faces of the A arms are not perpendicular to the shafts so they are gonna ride on the high spot/s. Could be some wear issues here. I'll pre-load them as much as "feels" right. Having said that, I'll use them anyhow but keep an eye on em for end play. As a last resort, one could cut the poly bushing thrust section off the rest of the bushing and use that.....so I won't be throwing them away. |
